Justin Gabriel Leaves WWE - Causes Rumble Plans to Change

Justin Gabriel was reportedly set to win the Royal Rumble and go on to face Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania, his recent run down in NXT is cited as the reason the hefty decision was made.

"We just knew that the South African audience would believe in him." said WWE staph member, Phil Brooks.

Unfortunately for WWE, Gabriel left the company yesterday in order to pursue his sewing career, leaving the company in a tough spot.

Who is best in a tough spot? According to Vince McMahon, Roman Reigns has all the tools.

"He looks just like Dwayne, he's got to be good!" said McMahon.

Roman Reigns is currently scheduled to enter a storyline with The Rock, where he will undergo a shaving of his head in order to look more like the legendary superstar.

Disney and Activision Get in Schoolyard Tussle

A source in the games industry has told us that he spotted corporate juggernauts Activision and Disney in a slap fight near a school swing set.

The fight was reportedly started when a representative of Disney claimed that Disney Infinity sold more copies than Skylanders, of which the Activision representatives disagreed.

The argument escalated when a Skylanders coder threw a Beyblade at a Disney employee after he had ripped the coder's Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

After a few minutes of slapping each other, the employees were separated by Brenda, the overly nice teachers assistant on duty at the school. Both parties were then forced to apologize and had to spend the rest of recess on the big bench inside.

Microsoft Attempts to Ban The Bible

Due to the recent decision by Microsoft to stop content creators from using their game titles in video posts, they have also gone after religious outfits for violation of terms.

The word "Halo" has been banned by Microsoft because it refers to their popular video game franchise of the same name. This has led to a stand-off between the Xbox developer and the Catholic church, which does not view Master Chief as their saviour deity.

There is expected to be an ongoing lawsuit in the future, although it seems that Microsoft is likely to emerge the victor due to the grey law areas of copyright benefitting them in the long run.

Microsoft has also begun fining any mention of the Ark of the Covenant.

Indie Dev Starts Kickstarter in Order to Update Early Access Game

Patching takes a lot of time and hard work, this is why most developers finish the game before selling it. Indie developer BitVoxelCraft has realized this and is now accepting donations on Kickstarter in order to update their Early Access game.

Their game "Sur-5", is an open world survival game with a focus on voxel destruction, player crafting and a professional griefing system.

Since the game's initial release, the company has gone over budget and is not able to meet the parameters that they initially expected. The game has been released for nearly a year without any patches or updates.

In response to player outcry, BitVoxelCraft has now started a second Kickstarter in order to raise money for future patches to their game. Rewards for backing this include a free copy of the new game they have begun working on, "Sur-6" which is set to be released a year after Sur-5 is officially released.

According to BitVoxelCraft, gamers may back a Kickstarter campaign for Sur-6 starting next month.

Uncharted 4 to Offer Subpar Experience to Avoid Subpar Experience

Naughty Dog is adamant in making sure they follow in Ubisoft's footsteps. Uncharted 4 will possibly offer a 30fps experience because "We're going to do whatever it takes to make the game we want to make."

This is a contradictory quote as Naughty Dog has previously stated that they want Uncharted 4 to reach 60fps. This was most evident last June when Naughty Dog employee, Eric Monacelli exclaimed that they were targeting 60fps because it improved the game.

"We’re targeting 60fps for Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, and as you can see, the visual fidelity for our character models will reach new heights. In fact, thanks to the power of PS4, right now Drake’s Uncharted 4 model is over double the polygons of Joel from The Last of Us PS3." said Manacelli.

This is following the recent trend of game developers releasing games with a lower frame rate than previously expected. The 30fps experience has been touted by multiple companies in the past year. Ubisoft has stated it is a better experience than 60fps.

Many PC elitist gamers have been up in arms about the topic, though the reason for this is anyone's guess as Uncharted is a console exclusive series.

We asked an employee to elaborate on this decision but could not understand him due to his foot being inside his mouth.

Uncharted 4 is currently set for release in 2015.

Battlefield Hardline Beta Now Available for Pre-Order

Those excited to get in on the action they played a year ago are pre-ordering Battlefield Hardline's beta.

The game is currently set to feature all new glitches, bugs and lag issues in order for players to feel fully involved during the "development process".

There is rumoured to be a new game mode involving random chance mechanics were players continuously navigate Battlelog until they are one of the lucky few that may join a game. Once in the game, there will be a new scoring system where the person with the highest amount of random suicides is the winner.

When asked why the developers decided to charge money for the beta, our reporter was abducted and taken to EA headquarters, which appears to be underneath a volcano in a tropical island. Last we heard he is currently being tortured by sharks with freaking laser beams.
